All right, fellow movie fanatics, it’s almost Oscar time! If you’re as rabid a filmgoer as I am and have been following this year’s race for Academy gold with anywhere near the rapt attention I’ve been paying to it, then you know how competitive movieland awards season has been in 2014.

Seriously, if you’ve been following the coverage and the profiles and the other award ceremonies with anything like my preternatural ability to forecast trends then you’re not going to be surprised that I’m expanding my usual list of Oscar predictions. That’s right, despite the fact that it’s a tighter race to the top this year, I’m setting myself a grand challenge. Anybody can pick Best Picture, Actress, Actor, but since I’m basically a raging junkie when it comes to movies and this whole crazy campaign season hoopla, I’m laying it on the line and predicting the winners of ALL THE OSCAR CATEGORIES.

I’m not kidding. I’ve got the entire list right down there.

Oh and hey, since I’m feeling lucky and I’m such a huge football fan, I might as well share my Super Bowl pick before the big game. I’m thinking the Patriots have just enough to beat the Seahawks. It’ll be close, maybe even coming down to one play in the fourth quarter. That’s just my gut instinct, I could be wrong.

Anyway, here are my picks for the 87th Annual Academy Awards, I can’t wait to see how the big night plays out!
